Hello, Would you post a pic of the bottle? If I feel like I can clean it, I will do so for free and you just pay shipping cost!!

Basically it depends on several factors. Are you talking about 1 bottle or several? How bad is the staining? I do some cleaning for as little as $12 each for 4 shipped together that need a one shot polish. Worst case would be $20 for very heavy staining. That does not include shipping.

Finding someone close to you is the key, since I collect locals only the shipping cost back and forth is more than most of my bottles are worth, and that's before the $15(AVERAGE) to have them cleaned...

normally people charge different amounts depending on what needs done.
like cutting would be more than just polishing.

this was Ryan's price list when he was tumbling just for reference. He did a good job.
